Councillor Update - May 2025

Spring is here and after the seesawing of temperatures in April, I hope we will all be able to enjoy some beautiful weather. Mother's Day is May 11, a time for some to celebrate their relationship with their mother(s), family and friends, for others to hold space to grieve. There are also many who have complicated relationships to their mother or children, and they too need love and support. I hope regardless of your situation, that the day can be one where you can focus on supporting yourself and the people important in your life.

This month is busting at the seems with exciting updates and initiatives in Toronto Centre. We couldn't fit everything into one email, so please also check out my website for all of the recent updates.

At our recent April City Council meeting, we adopted a comprehensive Congestion Management Plan to enhance safety and efficiency in your daily commutes. Key measures include expanding the "Don't Block the Box" initiative, growing our Traffic Agent Program, and advancing automated enforcement technologies.

In addition, after years of advocacy, we now have a City-Wide Dog Off-Leash Strategy, ensuring safe and enjoyable spaces for our furry friends. Thanks to your input, we've developed clear guidelines for new off-leash areas, enhanced enforcement, and tailored hours to respect neighbours.

Local planning is also a top priority. As we navigate provincial policies, join us for the TC Talks on May 6 at The 519, where our panel of experts will discuss building complete communities and preserving our cultural spaces.

Your voices shape our community. Thank you for your continued support and engagement. Together, we’re making Toronto Centre a better place for all.

Yours in Service,

Chris Moise
City Councillor
Ward 13 - Toronto Centre
